Beautiful treed property! There’s chickens to feed, and a small dock on the river where you can feed fish (bring quarters!). Dinner had bbq beef ribs (good flavor, a little tough), roast pork (odd flavor), chicken (tasted like shake and bake), and ham (best meat option!). The sides were pretty good, but some were cold like the baked beans. The rolls and cornbread were good but they only give one per person and it’s hard to get more. Service was a little slow. The wait staff are friendly but food comes out slowly. Well stocked gift shop with Knick knacks and candy. Worth going to once.

Very unique experience. As others have said, it’s comfort food; nothing gourmet about it. It’s all you can eat and arranged like an old logging camp. There are long tables and benches with metal plates and coffee cups in a log building. Great food and service. Lovely grounds.

We have been coming to the logging camp for years, and it is always a place we like to visit when we come up north. All you can eat but you get one of order eggs at the beginning (any quantity but no take-home containers), then you can reorder more sausage/ham/pancakes throughout the meal. Theme is an old logging camp as seen from the surrounding trees, and the long tables in the eating area fit the era. Taste is okay but on par with the price and the theme. Overall, it is a good experience, and my family will continue to visit!

We decided to have breakfast here while visiting family that has a lake home in Osage, MN.

It was just over a 30 minute drive and well worth it! There was plenty of parking available, including handicap parking.

We entered the gift shop to pay for our breakfast, only $13.00 per person. What a fun gift shop, so many cool things to look at. We knew we would be stopping back, on our way out, to buy some treasures to take home with us.

We then left the gift shop to walk to the Cook Shanty (where we ate). The tables were all set up with red & white checkered table cloths, each place setting was a tin plate, tin coffee cup, glasses for juice/milk & silverware. The benches you sit on were cut logs & it felt like you were a logger grabbing a bite to eat.

The decor had funny signs, as if you are a logger. Displays of carved wooden figures, old canned foods, cookware, oil lamps etc. It was very quaint!

Our server was all smiles & explained how to order, as all food is served family style. You order how many eggs you want (soft or scrambled), you get one hashbrown (which is a huge portion), sides of pancakes, ham & sausage are all you can eat and you were served coffee & could also have orange juice and/or milk.

The entire staff, including the gift shop staff, were friendly, helpful and seemed to enjoy what they do. We felt welcomed!!

There was also a fun play area for children if there is a wait to be seated. The area is outside & will keep them entertained.

The food was hot and delicious!! They also have dinner and we will definitely come back for that on our next trip.

This is a unique dining experience and one your whole family will enjoy.

We stopped at the gift shop and made several purchases on our way out. Such a great time had by all and we were so full!!

First time visit. Food and good service for Lumberjack breakfast were abundant. Will be back next visit to Minnesota. Open for breakfast till 11am. Dinner is served from 1pm till closing. While the great food is the main attraction, the open air museum gives visitors a glimpse into the past timber harvesting operations in Minnesota.

Memorial Day 2021 – emerging from covid, Back for the full experience. Looks like there is more outdoor seating. All the same great food and fun experience.

Five stars for for the fun experience! The food is plentiful and good. Family style; hash browns and eggs up front and unlimited meat and beverage refills. The grounds are an old logging camp with a blacksmith shed and old steam tractor and log saw. These historical displays are in need of some maintenance but still interesting. The property is beautiful with some trails and a lazy stream as a highlight. Gift shop has the typical up north trinkets.

These guys are really great at serving large groups efficiently. I’ve eaten here many times and the food is very filling. I haven’t ever liked the pancakes, but the rest of my family does and there is always enough food at the table.

I’ve gone here to eat breakfast many times. Always great food and experience. Love walking around the grounds after the meal to enjoy the scenery. They have a souvenir shop to purchase goods as well.

The experience was cool, but food is subpar for dinner. Maybe breakfast is better with how good of reviews it has. It was very quiet, only two other groups of people there when we were there. My kids did enjoy feeding the chickens. It’s kind of in the middle of nowhere.

I think the bathroom was haunted. The door kept squeaking open and I heard the water running at one point but I was the only one in there!
